An MBA sabziwalla's dream and the hurdles he's facing

A lofty dream

He is called the 'MBA sabziwalla' and wants to make Bihar India's vegetable hub.

Kaushlendra, an alumnus of the Indian Institute of Management-Ahmedabad (IIM-A), is now working towards pre-paid cards for buying vegetables but complains of irritating hurdles that discourage budding entrepreneurs.

Kaushlendra, who refused to join a multinational company like his peers as he wanted to work towards making Bihar a better place, says something as simple as encashing a cheque can take days.
